Bug Description
There is no way to disable ipv6 with kernel 2.6.24-19-lpia, because the kernel config specifies that ipv6 support should be compiled into the kernel, rather than being compiled as a module. On most networks, there is no reason to have ipv6 enabled, and on many networks (especially wireless ones) the system works better if ipv6 is disabled.
Please provide an updated 2.6.24 lpia kernel for Hardy that provides ipv6 as a module, so that it can be disabled if required.
